It's a stretch but we don't have a lot of options

Regardless, I think the "change of pace" concept for a team's second unit is sort of overrated. I don't think GMs are racking their brains trying to find players that go against the overall make up of their roster.Last edited by Fully; Fri Jun 23, 2017, 09:04 PM.

“It’s tough. I’m 22 years-old, I’m not here to sit on the bench, I’m here to play basketball,” Nurkic said to Mr. Wind at practice Thursday. “Tough decision for me, from starting spot for three minutes, to seven, four-straight not play. I’m not accept that. Nobody probably understands my position so even if you don’t know if you’re starting the next game or not. But like I said, you can control what you can control and I let my agent do the rest of the stuff.” (from Denver stiffs)
I think they liked his skill set in the 2nd unit but not his attitude. Plumlee is a free agent and maybe wants as much or more money than JV and for more yrs. Not sure? Plus cojo kinda fits. Maybe bebe instead of JV?

The more interesting thing though is that the Kings are going to get a boatload of cap space (I heard somewhere around $50M overall). Could be the ideal team for a Carroll dump.

Saw a blurb today about the Wolves looking to upgrade at pg...and Lowry is on the radar.
Doubts exist whether they can afford him.

No thanks.If we knew half as much about coaching an NBA team as we think, we"d know twice as much as we do.

No thanks.
The question of whether we should consider him is whether he's a better or worse sort of awful than post-injury Carroll, as that is probably whom we would be attempting to replace if we picked him up.

Wolves want Lowry. They only have $20m in cap room. S&t Lowry for rubio and picks?
